A Washington County jury on Friday acquitted 25-year-old Gregory Avery Jr., of Washington, Pa., of all charges he faced.

Avery was charged in the February 2009 slayings of 23-year-old Troy Saunders Jr. and 24-year-old Marquis Taylor outside the Cabaret West bar in Washington, after another man implicated him.

That man, 29-year-old Phillip Whitlock of Washington, pleaded guilty earlier this year to third-degree murder, aggravated assault and criminal conspiracy. He has been awaiting sentencing while cooperating with prosecutors in the case and testified against Avery at trial.

Police say an argument over a jukebox song started the dispute that led to the shootings.
